Default Do all 96-00 civic ex's have vtec?

I have not seen (yet) a 96-00 civic with vtec on the valve cover... does that mean that they don't have vtec?

Just look for a solenoid to the left side of the head unit. If it's present then its VTEC if not then no V-TECH.

yes they are, they don't advertise it on the 96-00 single slammers.
